After learning from Chuanwen that his sister was a spy, the Minister of Revenue wanted to kick him out. But Luo Jiuling actually went to his wife to curry favor in order to stay. Not only did she falsely accuse him of trying to lay a hand on her, but she also helped his wife find fault with him. She was simply aiding and abetting evil!
The Minister of Revenue has suffered greatly at the hands of these two, and now he can't stand the Luo family at all. He grits his teeth whenever he sees them!
Luo Jiuxi was unaware of what had happened in the Minister of Revenue's family. She thought her sister had gone home after being discovered, so when she saw the Minister of Revenue suddenly gritting his teeth at her, she scratched the back of her head in confusion.
Why did you suddenly turn into such a bitter enemy of his while we were drinking together?
He wondered if he had offended the Minister of Revenue just now. He had only offered a toast and hadn't even said a word!
At this point, Chuanwen also revealed why Luo Jiuxi had become like this: "After Er Gou and his savage brother recognized each other, some savages followed their brother out of the forest, but others were unwilling to leave. So, Luo Jiuxi was sent to teach those savages farming, improving their productivity. Luo Jiuxi modified the savages, but living in the savage tribe, he himself was also modified quite a bit by them! That strong physique, those muscles all over his body, was developed during that time. Oh, right! Luo Jiuxi also found a savage wife! The two have a very good relationship!"
Cough, cough!
The emperor choked on his wine. What a bold move of his ministers to find a wild woman as a wife!
The Minister of Revenue was stunned for a moment. He looked at Luo Jiuxi's bulging arms and thought that this punch could kill a bull!
And his wife, with the addition of "wild woman" to describe her, doesn't seem like someone to be trifled with either.
The Minister of Revenue silently suppressed his hatred. He couldn't beat him, and he couldn't afford to offend him, so he decided to go somewhere cool and stay away!
However, Marquis Changxing looked at Su Heng with a puzzled expression, wondering if he was the only one who cared about Su Heng having a savage older brother.
Marquis Changxing looked at Su Heng, who showed no embarrassment and calmly drank his wine.
Marquis of Changxing: ......
That shamelessness is just like his granddaughter's; no wonder the two of them hit it off!
Under the flickering lights, the expressions of the people varied. The emperor and his group were surprised that Luo Jiuxi had married a wild woman, but the officials who had returned from Xiao Liang Kingdom with Luo Jiuxi were much calmer. What was it to marry a wild woman? They themselves were almost wild!
However, they still felt a great sense of accomplishment, as they had brought a lot of convenience to the people of Xiaoliang Kingdom and were highly respected in the area.
Those from the Little Liang Kingdom were unaware of what was happening beneath the dance music, and they were all shocked by the extravagance and difference of the Great Jin!
At this moment, Fang He and the old man also changed their clothes and came over. As soon as they entered the hall, the two of them were dumbfounded.
The dazzling lights, the magnificent glasswork, the graceful dance moves—it's simply a fairyland!
Deeply shocked, Fang He knelt down with a thud and crawled forward to the center of the hall, pleading with utmost devotion, "Please, immortal, grant me a magic pill!"
The emperor was bewildered by his behavior. "I? An immortal?"
After a moment of confusion, the emperor burst into laughter and hurriedly told Fang He to stand up, "I am not an immortal, nor do I have any elixir of immortality, hahaha!"
Fang He was stunned for a moment, unable to process what was happening. Impossible! Isn't this a fairyland?
After finally remembering that they were in the palace of the Great Jin Dynasty, Fang He was filled with envy and longing for the Great Jin Dynasty after taking his seat. In the past, the envoys he sent to the Great Jin Dynasty would praise the Great Jin Dynasty after returning. He did not believe it at the time, but now he felt that their descriptions were not even a fraction of what he had seen!
At the banquet, the officials of Xiao Liang Kingdom looked around and touched everything, and soon they were all quite drunk. Fang He even joined the dancers in their dance, but unlike the dancers' graceful movements, his intrusion looked like a shamanistic ritual.
......
After an awkward silence, the emperor burst into laughter. It seemed the ruler of Little Liang really liked their Great Jin! But who wouldn't? Since the railway opened, even more merchants from various countries had come to Great Jin for trade, directly boosting the economy of the towns along the route!
However, that section of the train only goes as far as Xuancheng, which is still too short. If we want the Great Jin Dynasty to become more prosperous, we still need to speed up the construction of roads. Just as Chuanwen said, "If you want to get rich, build roads first!"
[Little Jiaojiao is already going crazy, hahaha!]
When Chuanwen saw Fang He and the other person, he remembered that they had dragged Zhao Xuejiao’s beloved car. After digging into Zhao Xuejiao’s situation, he learned that she had no will to live and had climbed up a tree with smoke coming out of her head as the car was being cleared away, intending to hang herself!
The emperor's happy smile froze as unpleasant memories were brought back. Could you please not dampen someone's spirits when they're having a good time?
Zhao Xuejiao's father, the Minister of Personnel, trembled slightly while drinking, but then reassured himself, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. What can my daughter really do, hang herself?"
Officials from the Great Jin and the Little Liang Kingdom toasted each other. Chuanwen was a little bored and wanted to try the wine, but as soon as she picked up her cup, she was glared at by Marquis Changxing. Sigh! Alright! She obediently put the wine down again.
[It was just that time I got drunk and kicked his butt! Sigh~]
Chuanwen sighed inwardly. Marquis Changxing blushed and had no choice but to quickly pick up his wine cup to drink and cover his face, because he had been ridiculed for many days after Chuanwen kicked him!
However, the reason why Chuanwen was not allowed to drink today was not because he was afraid of being kicked again. The main reason was that Marquis Changxing looked at Chuanwen, who was sitting below the emperor, and he was afraid that Chuanwen would get drunk and kick the emperor's butt!
Unlike the embarrassment of Marquis Changxing, Su Heng smiled, seemingly indicating that Chuanwen's life had been quite fulfilling during his absence!
Not allowed to drink, Chuanwen's attention was quickly drawn to Fang He dancing. She also wanted to join in, but Marquis Changxing quickly understood the meaning in her eyes and glared at her as a warning.
The message reads: ......【Fine, fine! I won't jump if I'm not allowed to!】
Marquis Changxing smiled with satisfaction. Wen'er is still very well-behaved!
Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The King of Liang's dance was already eye-watering enough; they didn't want it to be twice as eye-watering!
Chuanwen's attention shifted again, and he saw the little old man from Xiaoliang Kingdom, the one who always used to sling people into sacks before, and Chuanwen had almost been swindled by him.
The old man was carefully drinking from his glass cup when he unexpectedly met the gaze of the person who had written the story. The old man smiled kindly and thought to himself, "What a beautiful girl!"
He had completely forgotten about trying to put a sack over Chuanwen's head. Chuanwen smiled gently at him, thinking to himself, "If I can't drink or dance, I can at least gossip!"
The old man couldn't hear Chuanwen's thoughts, but when he saw Chuanwen smile at him, he felt a surge of emotion: He's even more beautiful when he smiles!
However, the emperor and the officials of the Great Jin Dynasty who heard Chuanwen's heartfelt words all perked up their ears. This was perfectly acceptable!
